Auto excecuting steps in WFM.

I am using workflow manager as service for a web application. The problem that I am having is that some step that have all the propresties set to autoexecute when reached are not working. I still have to "click" so that the spet is executed.

That is one of the problems. I also have a step which indicates that the job or activity has started and it never moves from it. I have to refresh the page in order to se that the step has been showed as marked.

This step called "Job Started" sends an email notification tha the activity has started.

Please any help or suggestion on why this is happening. As I said i think I have al the proper requirements checked for the steps to autoexecute.
